Mechanisms are provided for optimizing files while allowing application servers access to metadata associated with preoptimized versions of the files. During file optimization involving compression and/or compaction, file metadata changes. In order to allow file optimization in a manner transparent to application servers, the metadata associated with preoptimized versions of the files is maintained in a metadata database as well as in an optimized version of the files themselves.

A portable media device for use in cooperation with passenger entertainment systems installed in vehicles, such as automobiles and aircraft, and methods for manufacturing and using same. The portable media device is configured to communicate with one or more content sources, which provide viewing content and which may be proximate to, and/or remote from, the portable media device. Preferably being configured to wirelessly communicate with the content sources, the portable media device can select content from any available content source and can download and present the selected content in any conventional manner. The selected content can be streamed to the portable media device for contemporaneous presentation and/or stored by the portable media device for viewing at any time, including after disembarking the vehicle once travel is completed. As desired, the portable media device likewise can be configured to transmit appropriate upload content to the content sources.

The present invention uses Electronic Lapping Guides (ELG's), which are patterned on every tape head, as servo format verifiers. This is implemented by specifically placing the ELG's at the appropriate locations to match the servo signal track locations and thus be usable to verify the servo format patterns on the formatted tape. According to another aspect of the present invention, tape head components which have faulty read sensors, servo sensors, or write elements which have valid ELG's may be used for the servo format verification purpose.
摘要:
A circuit and method of testing an analog driver circuit using digital scan-based test methodologies. The circuit of the present invention comprises a control circuit for generating signals in response to a test enable signal, a differential driver circuit for receiving a differential input signal, amplifying the differential input signal and transmitting a differential output signal in response to the differential input signal and the signals generated by the control circuit, a programmable termination impedance circuit for generating a differential termination impedance at the output node of the differential driver circuit in response the signals generated by the control circuit, and a differential receiver circuit for receiving the differential output from the differential driver circuit, convert the differential output signal to a single ended signal and transmitting the single ended signal, all in response to the test enable signal. The method of the present invention comprises digitally testing the differential driver circuit by activating a test enable signal, skewing the differential output termination impedance in response to the test enable signal, adjusting a voltage offset of the differential receiver circuit in response to the test enable signal, selecting a power level for the differential driver circuit in response to the test enable signal, enabling a decoder in response to the test enable signal, wherein the decoder activates only one segment of the differential driver circuit during any one test sequence, activating one of the segments for testing, stimulating the differential driver circuit with digital test patterns, receiving an output of the differential driver circuit by the differential receiver circuit, converting the received differential driver output to a single-ended signal, observing the single-ended signal; and deactivating the test enable signal.
